We report on two recent advances in the modeling of viscoelastic polymers: (i) a new constitutive model that combines the virtual stick‐slip continuum “molecular‐based” ideas of Johnson and Stacer with the Rouse bead chain ideas; (ii) a two‐dimensional version of a model that accounts for stenosis‐driven shear wave propagation in biotissue. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
